Abstract

This study focused on the use of apology strategies used by female and male front officers to reveal the types of apology strategies used and to reveal the similarities and differences between female and male front officers’ way of apologizing in handling customer complaints. The types of apology strategies showed that both female and male front officers combined all three apology strategies which are IFIDs, Account and Positive Politeness Apology Strategies. Besides, the order of their use of apology strategies were also varied. However, the female front officers had more Positive politeness apology strategies when responding to complaints with attacks and the male front officer did not use Account strategy when handling customer complaints without attacks. Finally, it can be concluded that types of complaint play a more important role than gender factor in the use of apology strategies by these female and male front officers.

Abstract

The purpose of making this Business Communication Final Project was to solve Sinar Terang’s problems. The problem was related to its products’ existence. Only few existing customers of Sinar Terang knew that Sinar Terang has its own bags. For that reason, it was difficult for Sinar Terang to sell its bags more. Therefore, the problem was how to make Sinar Terang’s existing customers know its bags without coming to the store and how to make Sinar Terang’s bags more popular. The solution to these problems was making a bilingual commercial website which consists of “Updates” part, “About Us” part, “Our Collections” part, “Made to Order” part, “Our Customers” part, and “Contact Us” part. This website would indeed solve Sinar Terang’s problem because for the existing customers, they could see Sinar Terang’s bags including the information without coming to the store. Also, Sinar Terang could attract new customers through this website.
